Have you seen the TV commercial touting IBM’s Bladeservers? It’s the one that begins with some IT guy peering out an office window through a pair of binoculars spying a Godzilla-sized orb overtaking the skyline of his city. “What is it?” he wonders out loud? “It looks like a giant ball of cables!” someone says of the rapidly expanding sphere. “Save us from all the cables!” ...

All I know is that’s something that HP is preparing. It’s a game that use GPS and a machine, a powerful machine judging the graphics on it. is it a UMPC or a MID? I don’t know.

The game seems to be a very interesting concept where the physical exercise is combined with some strategical thinking and probably some puzzles.

Portable Xbox?

Well, it’s not exactly and ”ultra portable” like your PSP, but it may fit the bill for spacious auto travel or gaming on vacation… I found this over on JK on the Run this AM. It’s a great idea, but if you own an xbox 360, you know that it’s not exactly lightweight.

Hmm. We got a PSP. We got Pink. We got a Pink PSP. My daughter would love this!
Anywho, from what we understand Sony pulled the official release, so they’re apparently not yet prepped to discuss the ramifications of the PSP getting femmed out even though we now know it will run you €229 or £169 when it debuts October 27th.
